GERD: With a negative cardiac workup, the next suspect would be a gastroesophageal reflux disorder. Try increasing your water intake to 3 liters daily, add more fiber to your diet and avoid acidic drinks or foods. (including spicy or fatty foods). You can try an over the counter acid reducer such as TUMS, Pepcid or Zantac as well.
